Our Artist
Last night was Tucker's special night - as I mentioned yesterday, one of his drawings was selected to be put on display at a local art gallery. To celebrate his accomplishment, we took him out for dinner at our most favorite chinese restaurant in Hallowell - Lucky Garden.
After dinner, we walked down to the gallery.
We spent quite a bit of time walking around admiring the art. I absolutely love kid art. It is full of life and created without restraint.
Then we spotted Tucker's drawing.
I also knew that Stacy's son had a piece selected as well, so we went on looking for his. We looked quite a bit but then I spotted it - right next to Tucker's.
In talking to one of the curators, she explained that display represnted 22 local schools grades K-8, and only 9 students from each school were selected from each school. It is quite an accomplishment for all of the children who had a piece of art selected by their art teacher. I am proud of all these little budding artists.

With temps nearing the 70's today, I was quite happy to slip into these comfy Keens today.
